What would our lives be like if we tended to our senses more?

What choices would we make about the lights above our heads and flickering past our eyes, the sounds vibrating through our bodies, the scents that draw us into a memory or warn us of danger, the taste that confirms that we know what our bodies need despite the 1,001 internet articles we’ve read telling us otherwise, the fabrics that brush against our bodies and calm us in moments of stress when we remember to feel.

This is what you get with your Mineral Body Mist: an opportunity to listen to your body. To choose the right one for you, follow your nose. Your body will respond (mmmm, ahhh) to what it needs.

Your thinking, thinking, thinking brain can rest while you let your olfactory nerves direct you. Being aware of what smells appealing to us helps us learn to receive the wisdom of our senses.

If you are reading from afar and aren’t able to come into the shop and smell the Mineral Body Mists for yourself, perhaps there is a sense memory that you can call up to guide you. Was there a time when you were pruning a lavender plant and had to pause because you couldn’t stop smelling your hands? Did a bouquet of roses open a room to you in a whole new way? Did cutting lemons trigger a sudden rush of clarity? Did the scent of sweet orange inspire you to sit in stillness for just another moment? Chances are, these sense experiences will correspond to the topical symptoms or body systems that are in need of extra attention and care.
